Matt,

I am hoping that you meant that you would NOT recommend
one of these solutions. I have seen a number of
businesses make the mistake of going with a low-end
solution just over cost, when in the end they lost out
on more revenues and lost time than they saved in license
fees.

Businesses using these solutions are usually smaller and
do not need more functionality. &nbsp;If that meets their
needs that is fine, but for bsuinesses that are largers
and need a stable, scalable and robust solution, there
are NO low-end solutions that make the grade. Even Ad
Juggler which has been running more ads lately is just
a low-end solution re-packaged with base functionality
and no real stability and functionality.
